Viewer Guidance

Notice retention tactics

Content structure prioritizes keeping you watching over informing you. Ask if the format serves understanding or attention.

Consider alternative frames

Information is consistently shaped from one angle. Seek out how other sources present the same facts.

Question unstated assumptions

Arguments rely on assumptions treated as obvious. Ask what you'd need to already believe for the claims to land.
